  That reply was a fish.  The previous reply was teaching you to fish.

  If you had bothered to do your elementary background research, you would
already have seen all those scripts, and read the announcements.  Similarly,
if after being told that it was all over the archives, you had bothered to go
and search and browse those archives, you would have found those scripts.

  If your immediate reaction to any problem is to sit there helplessly until
someone spoon-feeds you the answer, you have only yourself to blame for your
total lack of action.  Nobody else can move your own muscles for you.

  It is, of course, entirely up to you, whether you want to be a helpless
victim of circumstance, or take some degree of responsibility for your life
and what happens in it.

    cheers,
      DaveK
